Israeli navy attacks rebel-held Yemeni port city of Hodeida, a first in the conflict
- On Tuesday, the Israeli navy carried out its first seaborne missile attack against the Houthi-controlled port city of Hodeida in Yemen.
- This strike followed persistent Houthi missile and drone attacks on Israel and commercial ships in the Red Sea since the Gaza war began in October 2023.
- The missiles targeted military infrastructure within Hodeida, a vital humanitarian aid entry point for millions of Yemenis and a suspected weapons smuggling hub.
- From November 2023 to January 2025, Houthis attacked over 100 merchant vessels, sinking two and killing four sailors, while U.S. Navy ships transited the Red Sea without incident.
- The attack signals Israel’s expanded naval strategy to deter Houthi arms trafficking, but the rebels’ response remains unclear amid the ongoing Yemen conflict stalemate.
